New York Speeding Tickets Are Costly. Talk To Our Lawyer Today.
Last updated on March 3, 2025
If you have received a speeding ticket, you may be tempted to just pay the ticket and move forward with your life. You may feel that hiring an attorney is not worth the cost.
Not fighting your ticket could be more costly than you think. A speeding ticket could cause your auto insurance rates to increase significantly. In addition, the New York DMV will assess points for each moving violation you sustain. If you sustain enough points, you may receive a hefty fine. That is in addition to the standard fine you pay for a speeding ticket.

New York Speed Camera Tickets
Due New York’s speed camera program, there are many locations with speed cameras in New York. Even if there’s not an officer present, the camera itself can take a picture of the vehicle’s license plate. and then a ticket is issued to the driver if they were found to be breaking the speed limit.
Some of the locations are well-known and documented. For instance, on the I-87 Thruway, there can be speed cameras from the New York City line all the way up until Exit 7A, which leads to the Saw Mill River Parkway. There are also speed cameras on I-95, the New England Thruway, and the GSP or the Garden State Parkway Connector. These are just a few examples of places where the Department of Transportation has used speed cameras in the name of public safety.
If you do get a ticket from one of these cameras, especially if you have subsequent violations that could escalate your fines, you need to know what defense options you have. Our experienced lawyers at James Kleinbaum Attorney At Law P.C. can help you contest these tickets.
For instance, there can be mechanical errors with the camera. If it wasn’t calibrated and maintained properly, it can be unclear if the speed recorded was accurate. Additionally, the camera doesn’t actually know who is driving the car at the time. If someone else borrowed your car, you might be able to claim that you weren’t the one who broke the speed limit, to begin with – even though you are the one who will receive the ticket in the mail.
In some cases, your goal may also just be to minimize the impact that the speeding ticket has on your license. You may be able to get the charges reduced to a speeding violation instead of aggressive or reckless driving. Our experienced attorneys can help you explore your options every step of the way.
